10.2k words on the fanfic I shouldn’t be writing. Already have a NEW fanfic idea that I am using every fiber of my being to resist.
As for my original stories, published one new chapter on WP that I had already written ages ago, and as far as new writing for that story? 203 words… 
Wrote chapter 1 of the new paranormal/mystery story, I think its good setup for the rest that follows
No title for it yet, but I definitely want to have that mystery vibe, with maybe a hint of vampires
As for Sapphire Wings, got up to 1.9k words on the new chapter, and I think I know where I want to stop it
Just a matter of writing it out :3
got some more feedback on GH, the critiques are looking pretty consistent: ground the setting earlier, clarify the antagonist group’s role/ideology, clean up the metaphors and similes.
i should have been working on this all week but… eh. at least the consistency in feedback means i don’t have 800 different things to fix. just 100 really obvious things.
@JohnnyTuturro here is struggling writers 
Why did this tag not work? 
You know what would be weird as hell? If there were Mexican Duranguense and country music versions of all my character’s fave songs playing in the background and only he can hear them and people think he’s going mad.
Did some editing today to fix the issues being brought up by my beta readers. But i’m worried now that i’m infodumping. There’s not that much room to disperse all this worldbuilding that was brought up as not being clear enough.
I just realized that my fantasy story is essentially a fictionalized retelling of the real life story of Princes Harry and William. Except that in mine, their mother comes back from the dead in the end. Hmm… ¯\_(ﭢ)_/¯
There are only so many stories out there.
So true! And two brothers in conflict never gets tiresome, no matter how many books are written on it. ( ˆ◡ˆ)۶ ٩(˘◡˘ )
How the heck was this topic muted for me? Any wonder I didn’t get notifications for it?
Hey everyone! I’m back from a 4 month hiatus. What are some tips to get back into writing and the wattpad community after kind of going ghost for so long? I first joined wattpad right around the ONC hyped time lol I wasn’t able to put anything up for this year’s Wattys but I am starting a new(ish) book and even my writing is a bit rusty lol. I feel like I’m stumbling around in the dark trying to get back into a routine.
Hi there! Welcome back 
tips for getting back into writing:
reread something you wrote from chapter 1
talk about the stories you were/are working on
visit me at this thread
So I can ask you about your story and we can ask each other and hopefully inspire each other 
I can ask you all kinds of questions that can get you back into your story 
Getting back into the Wattpad community, you could start out by posting in your announcements, visiting Wattfriends profiles and messaging them, joining book clubs.
Just kinda thinking…
So, they’re not going to Lifelend, I decided.
Sorcerers should be hot on their tails. They could easily hop on their grigs and chase them. That won’t be good for Lifelend, so the gang make a detour.
So then a little loop around, they go to the Scorch or whatever I named that place. Sorcerers avoid flying through there because they don’t know it well. So, that’s good. Pinti and everyone end up staying a little while in the exact place that Scotch and friends would later end up.
They meet the other red head gang. So, Pinti has very positive impressions of the red head Humans because they were so helpful. They also devise a plan to help free the child Kattaluna that was taken.
Pinti wants to leave right away to find the moonstone, but everyone else wants a few days rest at least. She has to stay with them. She’s the leader. Or maybe not. Maybe they fight about that and cause problems for the Humans.
blehhhh this writing style is, garbasch. and i do not like this main character, she is too passive. boo, boooo what happened, im so bored u^u
Started Chapter 2 on the new wip, but barely any progress for Sapphire Wings
I feel stuck on how this next action scene should go… maybe playing some fitting music will inspire me
I fixed the naming issue of my species in another Elgana book.
Phew.
Relief.
No more Kathula. Only Kattaluna. No more Shaa. Only Ilvagi. No more mulatto. Only Hybrids. I did not realize, at the time, how offensive this word was and how I was using it in the wrong way anyway.
So, I was rereading a bit and didn’t realize how goofy and amateurish I had made my lizard wizard.
I’m so used to his wise old man era that this young era throws me off XD Who are you??? XD
i have start my latest chapter from scratch. i wroted 2k words, realized that it was like pulling teeth because i couldn’t write myself out of the plot hole i created so it just had to go. blegh!!
I don’t care what I write anymore as long as I write something.
thinking of changing a character’s name but i’m not sure to what. Suggestions?
The parameters:
it/its genderless
black, shapeless + ragged clothing
very sneaky/secretive/ghostly
the character who “names” them:
has a strong lisp (no names with s or z)
thinks its spooky af and is stalking them
previous names - looking for something with similar inhuman or inanimate-but-with-humanoid-features vibes:
puppet
ragdoll
